Here's a video from my recent trip to Queenstown of the TSS Earnslaw making one of its regular journeys across Lake Wakatipu to Walter Peak farm station. The TSS Earnslaw was once one of 4 steam boats owned and run by the New Zealand Railways on lake Wakatipu. Connecting with the NZR network at Kingston and serving the small communities around the lake shores and beyond. The Earnslaw was originally built primarily as a general cargo ship with also great capacity for transporting livestock. She has since been majorly refurbished and spends her preservation era days now cruising passengers from Queenstown across to Walter Peak and back again.
